About this role

At Kabam, we’re constantly raising the bar of excellence in free-to-play gaming. We hire for passion and diversity so that we can triumph in our collective skill. Our teams are made up of a fusion of personalities and interests bound together by a collaborative nature, fun-loving culture, and a drive to do what it takes to make great games. And this is where you come in…
The Opportunity:
This is an opportunity to join a new publishing initiative at Kabam and learn the videogame business from the inside, with hands-on experience shaping the content marketing strategy for upcoming games on PC and Console. You’ll work cross-functionally in close partnership with the Product Marketing Manager and Community teams while reporting to the Principal Product Manager.
Most importantly, this is a role with real ownership. You’ll have the chance to take projects from idea to execution, make a measurable impact on a game’s performance, and see the results of your work in the real world. We’re looking for someone who is ambitious, curious, and eager to challenge assumptions. Someone who wants to find new and non-traditional ways to grow a game through organic content, community driven growth and creative marketing tactics.
The Content Marketing Co-Op is responsible for helping plan and execute growth strategies for our games, with a heavy focus on organic social content. This person will bring fresh ideas for how to market games organically and will own the execution of the tactics that drive growth. We're looking for someone who can hit the ground running by creating content, capturing gameplay, and experimenting with new ways to reach players and generate excitement. You'll combine creativity, market research, and insights from successful campaigns across gaming and beyond.

This is a hands-on, creative, and entrepreneurial role. The ideal candidate is a genuine gamer who understands content and social media, isn’t afraid to try things, and treats the growth of a game as their own personal mission.
